G.O. Help Haiti (Stabilized)

This is where FVCC's Haiti donations are going. Here is a little video with Brook Brotzman (G.O. Ministries) and Mart Stuart (Audio Adrenaline and Hands and Feet Ministries) and the work they are doing with funds, some of which came or will come from Fox Valley Christian Church.

This weekend FVCC is taking up another donation for G.O. Ministries. Let's step up. Make your check out to FVCC and write Haiti on the memo line or place cash in an envelop with Haiti on the outside. Let's help Mark and Brook help the people of Haiti!

FVCC steps up to help Haiti!!!

Fox Valley Christian Church stepped up this weekend to help Haiti through our ministry partners at G.O. Ministries.

Over the weekend we took up a special offering to support the relief efforts in Haiti. And had a great result.

This weekend folks from FVCC gave $2,680 to the relief efforts through G.O. Ministries. That money is already on it's way to Haiti.

But it's not too late to give if you didn't get a chance to this weekend. This coming weekend (January 24) we will be taking up an additional special offering to go directly to relief efforts in Haiti. If you would like to donate, bring a check made out to FVCC with "Haiti" in the memo line and place it in the offering basket. If you would like to donate cash, bring it in an envelope marked with "Haiti" on the outside and we will make sure that it gets to it's destination.

It would be great if we could double that this weekend. Together, the Kingdom of God can make a huge impact in help His people in Haiti!

Help FVCC help Haiti!!!

Fox Valley Christian Church has a long history of working with and supporting G.O. Ministries in the Dominican Republic and Haiti. We have been serving alongside them for over 10 years through financial support and short term missions trips (like we are planning this spring break).

With all the devastation in Haiti, the staff of FVCC feels that we CAN DO SOMETHING to help the people of Haiti. G.O. Ministries is already on the ground in the Dominican Republic and are working to help those who are crossing the boarder from Haiti into the D.R. for supplies and help. While we would like to get on a plane and go and lend a hand, that isn't practical.

So at FVCC this weekend (January 17 and 24) we are going to be accepting donations to go to G.O. Ministries to help with the earthquake relief. If you would like to donate to the rescue efforts and make a Kingdom impact, you can drop a check in the offering plate this weekend made out to Fox Valley Christian Church with "Haiti" in the memo line and we will make sure that your funds go directly to G.O. Ministries.

We are doing this to help our ministry partners who are on the front lines helping those in need. My hope and prayer is that the biggest help in this tragedy comes from the Church as the Church reaches out to those in need.

This weekend and next (January 17 and 24), help us help G.O. Ministries!

Jim
